Louis Jarnns.

The Post-Dispatch, OF st. Louis, which
was John McCullough's home, said re-
Gently: perhaps the greatest gratifca-
ton to the audience who waited for the
appearance of Mr.. James last night was
his remarkable resemblance to McCuI.
Tough in mis- make. The resemblance was
not studied one, but rather due to the
classic profile, the splendid physique, and
The manly bearing OF the actor. The
voice, too, has the rich quality once pos
sesse0 by that of the dead tragedian, but
it is deeper and better modulated."

Shettail.
Magistrate D. f. Shettall, of one of the

escape from a serious accident yesterday.
He was driving home along the Augusta

Naanah and Charleston railroad crossing,
four miles from the city, they found a
freight train standing near the public
road. Mr. Sheftall, ii is stated, hailed
some of the trainmen and asked If he
could cross, Receiving no reply he called
again but received no answer. He then
started 10 cross, but just as bis team got
on the track the engine started ahead, at
the same cine blowing off steam. The
mule was frightened and stopped. The
cowcatcher struck one OF the hind wheels
of the buggy, overturned it and threw the
occupants out. Both were frightened,
but neither was seriously hurt.

greatest satisfaction.
The company have contracted to in.
troduce electric lights into the Eighth
Street Market House, the Union Ma.
tioual Bank and the Washington ST. am
Fire Engine house, and they are kept
80 busy filing orders that the latter
have got week or two in advance Of
the capacity Of the COM any to e ]
them.
The company claims with Food
show of reason that electricity is even
now, with new discoveries constantly
occurring, the cheapest motor power
for the driving Of machinery that can
be used, A hundred-horse power mo.
tor can he bought for 5000, which Is
very much cheaper than steam or gas.
Taking everything into consideration IL
is believed that electricity is even now
reduced to tho minimum price OF gas,
aud when 1t comes into more general
use 1t will probably be rec uced in price
still lower,
